Data management

Once your data model is ready, you're able to add data. The DSP-APP offers several possibilities to add data, whether you are starting from scratch or importing data from another program.

Start from scratch

When a project starts from scratch, you will enter and generate new data directly in the DSP-APP itself. Generating new data can be done one by one with a form at the moment:

• Upload files, e.g., an audio file, photography, a video, or a document
• Augment the metadata

Create new resource instances

To create a new resource instance, you go to your project workspace and find the desired resource class in the side panel from which you want to create a new instance.

Your resource classes are listed in the side panel of your project workspace.

Fill in the form and upload the file if requested (depending on the type of resource). Please, note that the required fields are marked with an asterisk * after the property label. Click on Save to create the new resource instance. If you cannot click on Save, it means that a required field has not been filled in.

Create a new resource instance e.g. a book

Please, note that the image, video, and audio files must be in one of the required file types supported by the database. The supported types are listed in the upload section of the form.

Create an image resource

When creating a new resource of type Still-Image, you have two options to proceed:

OPTION 1 (tab 1): Upload Image

You can either select an image from your local computer folder or drag and drop it directly into the upload section. After that, fill in the required properties below and save to create the image resource.

Upload an image from your local computer folder

OPTION 2 (tab 2): External IIIF URL

You copy and paste a valid external IIIF URL in the field, then, fill in the required properties and save to create the image resource.
